Sabrina Carpenter – Why (Official Video)

It’s a song by Sabrina Carpenter released in 2017.

I relate to the lyrics that sing about worries anyone can have when being in a relationship.

They’re a couple whose personalities, hobbies, and preferences are all different, but maybe it works precisely because their worlds expand through each other.

If you’re struggling, listening to this song might make you feel a little lighter.
